    Very calm and tranquil place for a walk. Beautiful open space with scattered seating, with lovely trees and open fields. It has a race track, table tennis, basketball and football court and a cricket pitch. Perfect for a family day out and a picnic in summer.

    Well used but rather small park popular with the neighbourhood for cricket and football games. Could do with some more trees which we just planted.

  • 4/5 Steven Horton (. 2 years ago on Google
    It's ok for the dog but not a lot to do. Loads of sports etc at the weekends Inc a cricket pitch which is well maintained.

  • 5/5 Adil S. 8 months ago on Google
    It’s a great place to walk with accessible parking on Speedwell Road. There are tracks for cyclists and there is a good amount of trees.

  • 5/5 Admasu S. 5 months ago on Google
    Very nice park for a walk or seat down and enjoy a bit of calm surrounded by large beautiful trees.

  • 3/5 Martina L. 7 months ago on Google
    Great little park for a very short stroll, no amenities or attractions other than a little tennis/basketball court. I only really come here when the court Is free as the surface is perfect for skating.

    Large green space with paths. Small play area over bridge and area for football or cricket

    Really calm and soothing.There are plenty of trash bin and benches in the park,unlike some other parks it's properly maintained and there's hardly any litter quite clean and hygienic. There's a football ground there too and jogging track best for morning walks.
